| Abrasive liquids can be very damaging to your pump. Although Cat PumpsŪ are not recommended for pumping abrasive liquids, we do have many pumps running successfully in reclaim water applications. Since reciprocating pumps use seals and o-rings that mate to smooth cylinder and plunger surfaces, the type and degree of abrasiveness of the reclaimed liquid will directly affect the life and service cycles of the pump. Some reclaim systems require extensive filtration to remove highly abrasive substances or fine metal particles. Review Cat Pumps' Car Wash Reclaim Statement. Contact Cat Pumps with any questions on your reclaim application. |
